They had to find some kind of busywork for 150+ agents otherwise they'd just sit around playing with the ole Duncan Yo-Yo. That's not good for budget reviews.
Would you believe this? The NSA put out a coloring book for kids!!!! But that was about 2015 and the color remark was about 2009. That is funny!
It's kind of creepy though. From google results which I don't have time to read, it appears to some that they are setting kids up to be recruited as spies. Now what would that be for?
